White lines showing on desktop...WTF !?!?

blackjak231 · #1 04-17-2008

I recently installed ubuntu 7.10 in dual boot with windows XP, and i tried to follow some steps to have my desktop look like leopard. Everything went smoothely, but now, when i slect stuff on my desktop or just go over the taskbar at the top of the screen, some white lines show up on the screen. They can be erased by gowing over it, but its annoying!

Please help, Rep to everyone who can solve this!

Or he's using WindowsBlind? Did you change your Windows appearance?
I had the same problem (and more) using WindowsBlind but I didn't find a way to fix it. Maybe you should ask in other forums that are related to suff like that

But I hope someone else can give a solution.

Yeah, makes sense to me after reading his post again.
Sorry!

Ok, thanks a lot for all your help! I'll try to uninstall the theme and see what happens.
